Wrong fuel in your car in Connahs Quay? You've come to the right place. We are here to help you in this situatiuon and get you going again with our specialist fuel removal assistance.

It was close to five pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and me were seated there going over the recent golf results, ready for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Connahs Quay and filled petrol in her diesel Chevrolet hire car by mistake. The poor lady was quite distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe position and, as it was just a few minutes from us, we were able to get to the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive home satisfied and less worried. Yet another fuel drain in Flintshire well done in my opinion!

Our Fields of Specialties:

We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in the event that you?ve put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is definitely devastating to your automobile's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, leading to serious and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And of course don't crank the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel will likely bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases very simply.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container in the rear of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Flintshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Connahs Quay (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Flintshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your car if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car. They will be able to take care of any of the normal issues that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Connahs Quay - Connahs Quay Wrong Fuel Doctor

A gentleman had stopped just off a street in Connahs Quay. His Skoda engine had stopped running and he'd no clue what was faulty until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He called us to get a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten very little rest the day before and that could have been the key reason why.
